Yes. Shavano Park is an incorporated city in north Bexar County and we work there regularly. Larger wooded lots with mature native canopy are typical, so removals tend to be careful and access driven. Trimming, pruning, stump grinding and emergency response all available.

Shavano Park is its own incorporated city in northern Bexar County, up toward the escarpment, and it governs its own tree ordinance rather than falling under San Antonio. Confirm locally before removing anything substantial. Lots here run larger and hold more of their original native cover than the inner suburbs, mostly live oak and Ashe juniper. Mature native trees on a maintained property usually need structural pruning and deadwood removal rather than taking down.
Oak wilt is the reason a good crew asks about species before it asks about scheduling. Red oaks produce the spore mats that beetles carry; live oaks pass it root to root. The practical rules that follow are simple enough: keep oak pruning out of the spring, seal oak wounds the moment they are made, and treat storm-broken oak limbs as urgent rather than cosmetic.
People often want ball moss removed on the assumption that it is killing the tree. It is not. It takes nothing from the branch it sits on. Where it accumulates heavily, though, it is a reliable sign of a dense, shaded interior canopy, and thinning that canopy improves the tree and reduces the moss at the same time.
Access determines method, and method determines price. A tree that a lift can reach comes down quickly and safely. The same tree at the back of a wooded lot may have to be climbed and rigged out in pieces, or reached by first clearing a path. Neither is a problem, but both need to be known before a number is quoted.
We handle the whole sequence, so you are not coordinating between a trimmer, a stump grinder and a hauler. One crew, one quote, one visit where the job allows it.
Bring us the whole list at the estimate. Pricing four trees in one visit is meaningfully cheaper per tree than four separate call outs, because the setup and the travel only happen once.
Not every Shavano Park job is scheduled. emergency tree removal runs day and night, storm damage cleanup follows the storms that come off the escarpment, and dead wood removal deals with the limbs that died quietly.
It depends on how the tree has to come apart. If we can drop it in one piece the job is short. If it has to be dismantled from the top on ropes, or lifted out with a crane, the labor changes and so does the number. The estimate is free either way.
Timing matters more for some species than others. Oaks in this part of Texas should not be pruned during the warm months when the beetles that spread oak wilt are active, which pushes oak work toward the coldest part of winter or the height of summer. Other trees are far more forgiving.
We are insured for the work we do. Request the certificate at the estimate and we will provide it. This is the single most useful question to ask when comparing quotes, and the cheapest quote is often the one that cannot answer it.
There is a line we do not cross, literally. Work near the service drop to your house we can handle with the right precautions. Anything in contact with primary distribution conductors is utility work and has to go through the power company, and we will tell you to call them rather than take the job.
My husband and I couldn’t be happier with the makeover our trees received. We chose the perfect company, and the entire experience was wonderful from start to finish. The team was friendly, professional, and did an excellent job. We’d gladly return because of their outstanding service and the care they put into their work. Highly recommended.
Wonderfully professional and detail oriented. I definarly recommend 3 Monkeys Tree Service!
LOVED THEM! Super quick, friendly, and did what they promised. I almost wish I had more trees for them to fix. They trimmed the crazy one in the back, and took out one that was starting to grow under the driveway and break the concrete. Can't even tell it was there. 100% would use these guys again.
They were great! Came out the very next day. It was such a tall tree. Did an awesome job. They surpassed my expectations. I will absolutely be using them again.
3 monkeys tree service was amazing. They were on time and did a great job and when they left the area was completely clean up. I would definitely recommend them to anyone who is looking for a great company with wonderful employees.
On time. Very professional, large crew. Everything was trimmed and clean. Trees won’t need cleaning up for a while but i would hire this team again in a heartbeat.
